Survey
Dear Parents,
All school leaders in the Archdiocese of New Orleans schools participate in a Professional Growth Program. As part of this, periodically a formal evaluation is done of the leader. This year, my job performance is being evaluated so that I may be able to better recognize my strengths and learn ways to improve to better serve our community. Please use the following link to complete a survey by Thursday, November 16. The survey is anonymous and the results go directly to the Department of Catholic Education and Faith Formation. Once compiled, they will be shared with me so that I may use them to set goals for the future.
Thanks,
Mrs. Dantagnan

Be A Good Neighbor
Please do not block the driveways of neighbors or businesses. Also, we have had calls about speeding and student speeding in the neighborhood. Please discuss this with your daughter. I spoke with the students at morning assembly. The neighbors have said they will alert police if the matter continues.

"Our Lady of Prompt Succor, Hasten to Help Us" 🙏 We celebrated our final school Mass by honoring Our Blessed Mother at our annual May Crowning Mass. Our newly elected Student Council President, Sophie Panzavecchia, crowned Mary with flowers. New E-Board Vice President, Avery Schexnaydre, presented her with a bouquet. We also honored those who attended District and State Literary Rally, as well as the softball team for their State Championship win! In our daily prayers we ask for the Blessed Mother's guidance, in hopes that she will give us the wisdom to accept God's graces and assist us in our trials. #DeusProvidebit , God Will Provide!
Two Archbishop Chapelle High School students were presented the St. Timothy Award in April for their leadership, service and good moral standards exhibited through their work with church parishes and the archdiocesan community. The two Chapelle students are Abigail Fortado and Morgan Gaudet! Abigail Fortado, St. Catherine of Siena, Metairie: Abigail served on the Archbishop Chapelle campus ministry team. She is also a member of Teen CROSS and attended the March for Life in Washington, D.C. Her campus minister shared this about Abigail, “She is passionate about the Gospel and is quick to work to evangelize those around her...I see her go after the lost sheep, the outsiders, the lonely. She befriends them, meets them where they are and loves them there.” Morgan Gaudet, St. Benilde, Metairie: Morgan is a member of Teen Cross and serves as a board member for St. Benilde's youth ministry. She also served on teh Archbishop Chapelle campus ministry team. Her campus minister shared these words about Morgan, “The depth of Morgan's relationship with Jesus sets her apart...She has gone to a level of prayer, trust and confidence in God that I do not see in most high school students.”
It's official! Our Student Council inducted new members recently, and we could not be more excited to see what each of them have to offer Archbishop Chapelle!
